Tools Provided

The tools for browsing m-beans that the Java Dynamic Management Kit provides are:

M-Bean Browser Web Page

The m-bean browser web page is generated by the HTML adaptor. It enables you to use a web browser to display a textual representation of m-beans in an agent. You do not have to generate c-beans to be able to use the m-bean browser web page, but you are limited to using the HTTP protocol for accessing m-beans.

The job Tool

The job tool provides a graphical representation of the m-beans in an agent. It also provides an example of a simple Java manager. To use the job tool to preview an m-bean, the corresponding c-bean must already have been generated. The job tool is able to receive events from an agent and, if necessary, respond to events it receives. For example, if an m-bean instance is added to an agent, the instance is displayed in the job tool window. If an m-bean instance is deleted from an agent, it is removed from the job tool window.
